Hi, my name is
Pushpakant Behera.
I build low-latency, real-time systems with AI and distributed architecture
I am a Software Engineer at Oracle focused on WebRTC, AI agents, and cloud-native systems. My recent work spans SIMD and WebAssembly-based media optimization, resilient gRPC API design, and Kubernetes-backed services that power scalable real-time communication workloads.
I enjoy solving deep systems problems and building production software that is fast, reliable, and scalable.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- C/C++
- Go
- TypeScript
- WebRTC
- gRPC
- Kubernetes

- Engineered a SIMD-optimized noise suppression module using C++ intrinsics and WebAssembly, reducing processing latency from 120ms to 22ms.
- Architected a real-time AI agent framework using Model Context Protocol (MCP) to ingest live streams with adaptive frame throttling.
- Led bootstrapping of the Real-Time Health System (RTHS) Android client and delivered a telemedicine MVP two weeks ahead of schedule.
- Designed idempotent gRPC APIs with retry budgets and exponential backoff to improve availability for stateful agent sessions.
- Containerized microservices with Docker and Kubernetes, and managed signaling-node infrastructure with Terraform.

-July 2023
- Decoupled audio and video publishing pipelines using Kotlin structured concurrency, reducing reconnection failures by around 60%.
- Built custom JNI bindings to expose deep C++ WebRTC metrics like jitter and RTT to UI surfaces, cutting debugging time by 75%.
- Overhauled Protocol Buffers build automation, eliminating manual merge conflicts and stabilizing CI/CD workflows.
- Architected a dynamic settings module with Jetpack Compose to toggle advanced streaming features such as Dynacast and Simulcast in real time.
- Ran extensive bandwidth tests across diverse network conditions and fixed race conditions behind hard reconnect failures.

- Worked with a team to make a collaborative workspace for educators and students
- Made several restful APIs for android application
A clone of the most famous typing game - Typeracer. This is a multiplayer game which uses sockets. It was made with NodeJS and Angular.
